Hello everyone and how are you. I searched for this prior to and could not find any existing posts on the top speed (probably more user error then anything else) ![Angry Smiley 038](/forums/images/smilies/angry-smiley-038.gif)
I am mainly looking for top speed info on the trip 47 set up... with a stepped hull so fairly late model. Also, if anyone has the GPH info that would be great... not really a main concern of mine, mostly looking for the top speed.
Thank you in advance!!!

LMAO... no... that is my boat up for sale. Ralph has been a great friend over the years... I listed it with him awhile back. I am buying another 47 (I just love punishment) ![Eek5drop](/forums/images/smilies/more/eek5drop.gif)
It has the 500EFI trip set up... turn key boat and ready for the water. I now have young kids and really need something with a full finished cuddy... that is why I am reluctantly selling my race boat.

Just sold our 2006 47 with trip 525, ran 87-88 with a boat full of fuel and people, ran 90.8 with 2 guys and half tanks.
Also have a 2010 with beefed up 700's running 113+, hoping for 115+ very soon!

With the info above I am thinking I should hit at least 100mph with the whipples... early 2000 hull... thoughts? My only concern at that point are the Bravo drives... they may be popping like popcorn at 100mph with 750+ pushing?...
